Fried food
Fried meals are a major source of unrecognised sugar and salt. Thus, when it's extremely hot outside, it's probably a good idea to stay away from fried foods.

Fruit juices
Fruit drinks and juices are particularly heavy in carbs, which can make you feel nauseous and make your symptoms of dehydration worse.

Pickles
Pickles are another food that dehydrates well, even though we're thinking of deli dishes right now. This is because they frequently contain a lot of sodium.

Coconut water
Studies have revealed that coconut water is less hydrating than ordinary water, in addition to the fact that many types of the popular beverage contain additional sugar that depletes H2O.

Soy sauce
Aside from providing some of the most delicious umami flavour, soy sauce is quite high in salt and so does little to help us stay hydrated.
